Plain? by myautofocuslife

Plain?

This is the prettiest caterpillar I've seen so far! I think the bold colors and pattern are very attractive. This caterpillar will become a Plain Tiger butterfly.

I do have a shot of the butterfly here: http://365project.org/myautofocuslife/365/2012-06-27

Beautiful markings Livia and fabulous capture and find.

August 1st, 2012  
i agree! i don't normally like bugs but this one is pretty. i had some monarch butterfly caterpillar before they are very similar to this tiger buttergfly.
August 1st, 2012  
this is incredibly cool! looks like a candy:)
August 1st, 2012  
The clarity and macro are superior ... awesome detail. Awesome everything!! I saw the butterfly (end result) and think that this guy is gorgeous in all stages. Also read where you don't want "tags, thank-yous, etc.) I should do that too to save some time on here. Hard for me to change, Livia. Guess I'll keep thanking (and talking to you anyway!) :)

A great, big, boldly colored and bright "THANK YOU!" to everyone! I'm fascinated by how caterpillars become butterflies. Nature is fantastic, isn't it. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate your taking the time to be encouraging. Again, thank you.
August 3rd, 2012  
Such a handsome fellow!
August 3rd, 2012  
Beautiful color, dof and lighting. You know, I've never seen a caterpillar in the wild. Always at zoos, or at exhibits. Now you have my curiosity peeked. Like ol' Sherlock says "The game is afoot."
August 3rd, 2012  
Wow, beautiful!
August 3rd, 2012  
What an amazing and colorful little guy! Wonderful shot! Love your focus and shallow dof.
